Back at the base...

The Heroes went into the conference room as instructed and opened the doors to see the large meeting room, but no one was in there. It was 2:00.

Figuring that the person who hired them could be late, so they decided to sit down and wait. The far wall door slid open and revealed a bigger and badder Megadroid that stands like a gorilla.

The Megadroid then grabbed them instantly and flung them outside the air. They sailed to the end of the jungle and landed with a thud. Before they could even react, the Megadroid grabbed them again and slammed them into the ground, then grabbed the Heroes.

"It's bigger!" a voice called through a loudspeaker. "It's badder! Ladies and gentlemen, it's too much for the new heroes! It's finally ready!"

A young, brown-haired man in a metallic suit descended from the sky on jet-boots and landed on top of the robot. He then poked a few buttons on his wristbands. The robots' blades stopped, and the bot stood down.

"I went through quite a few soldiers to get it worthy to fight you, heroes," he then spoke up. "But, man... It wasn't good enough! After you guys trashed the last one, I had to make some major modifications. Sure it was difficult, but you are worth it, I mean. After all... I am your biggest fan."

Because of what he said, Connor started to remember something from long ago.

"Bobby...?" Connor mumbled.

"My name is not BOBBY!" the brown-haired man replied and made the Megadroid fling them again. "And it's not 'Prince Power' either! That ship has sailed. All I wanted was to help you, heroes. I only wanted to help! And what did you say to me?"

Flashback:

"Fly home, Bobby. I work alone," said Sir Power

And it shows Bobby in his room and felt rejected by his idol. So rejected, he threw a portrait of Sir Power.

"It tore me apart, but I learned an important lesson: You can't count on anyone, especially your heroes!"

Flashback end:

"We were wrong for treating you that way, we're sorry," said Connor.

"See? Now, you respect me," the brown-haired man scoffed. "Because I'm a threat. That's the way it works. Turns out, there are a whole lot of people, whole countries who want respect, and they will pay through the nose to get it. How do you think I got rich? I invented weapons."

Sato began slowly going after a knocked down tree as he's monologuing. "And now I have a weapon that only I can defeat, and when I unleash-" He then picked it up like it was a simple paperweight and threw it at him.

The brown-haired man avoided it and fired a beam from his wrist and hit Connor with it, trapping him into an orb. "You sly dog! You got me, monologuing!" he laughed. And then he slammed Connor, to his friends.

"Cool, huh?" the brown-haired man smirked. "Zero-Point energy. I save the best inventions for myself!" he then used another beam to catch the heroes and slam them around the ground to teach them a lesson. "Am I good enough now? Who's super now!? I'm Techno, your nemesis, and-" he accidentally flung them over the trees. "Oh, brilliant..." he then deadpanned.

The Young Heroes fell past the treetops and dropped into a deep river which had a waterfall. They got out of the water and noticed Techno was coming after the heroes.

"Let's go!' yelled Bakugo.

Then they all dove into the water. They then splashed roughly right into the waterfalls and went deep under the water. Techno took out some kind of detonator.

"Alright. Try this one on for size, big boy," said Techno, and he pressed the button and dropped the detonator.

The detonator plunged into the water. With quick thinking, the Young Heroes know what it is, and they quickly swam away to the caves. The detonator exploded, creating a big one in the water, Bakugo saw the impact and uses his Quirk to help his friends. But they were caught by the impact and were launched to the surface.

Connor coughed a bit from being underwater and looked up, and to his surprise is a skeleton as he yelped in surprise.

"A skeleton!" yelled Ochaco as the others were in shock.

Then Connor took a closer look. That the skeleton is wearing a military uniform and was holding some kind of blaster, he rubbed the dust, and it has a symbol on it that describes 'LS.'

"Lazer Strike," said Connor. The Young Heroes now realized that the skeleton is Lazer Strike's best friend, Colonel Buford.

But Mineta noticed something different about the dead colonel.

"Guys, check it out. See what it's looking," said Mineta. The others noticed it as well, they moved to wear the skeleton is looking, and it shows that before the colonel was murdered. He wrote a word, 'MEGAS.'

"Megas?" Midoriya questioned. The heroes think that Buford was making some kind of message.

A tiny probe was flying into a tunnel and was scanning for life readings on the heroes and report back to Techno. And where it couldn't seem to find the heroes at all. After the probe tried to scan for them and was unable to find them, it reported back to Techno as he stoop atop of the waterfalls. 'Life readings negative, new heroes terminated.'

Techno bowed his head in respect to his formal lab rats and went off, thinking that the others were dead.
